Those pics are funny to me partly because I've been there. Plus I don't think I know any of those guys and it's easy to think they e-exist purely for our entertainment.
And that first one is intentional, it's a new variation on the superman called a Wonder Woman.
Whatever you want to believe.
The only ethical time to laugh at a crash is, if you are there and the guy that crashed is laughing. And only AFTER he begins to laugh. period.
Anyone here with me?
I got an A in Medical Ethical Debate in college a long time ago.
I don't know what you guys are talking about. That first pic is the most stylish no footer i have ever seen. That second guy isn't a newb, he is clearly going for the front flip and just didn't have quite the speed. These guys are freeking good. 
If somebody crashes and sacks himself Im going to laugh. Im not going to think about if its ok to laugh or if someone is going to get offended if I laugh. You need to loosen up and get the stick out of your ass. They were all funny pictures. Way to suck the life out of a funny thread.
By the way, thats not funny
Thats my friend. I rode up the pallet to the bench alot slower than he was goi ng behind me. This is the outcome. He and his bike really ended up like this.
that urban sirkight6 is a good laugh.

Agreed. I laugh because I can see myself doing the exact same thing.OGRipper said:Come on, lighten up man.

Nice avitar! Its terrible.
Gee if it wasn't funny, why was it posted? just curious...
You guys are all sick, have you no compassion? none of these pics are funny, all the bikes in those pics belong to some one who loves them, and they are getting scatched and damaged, come on people think of the bikes, those poor bikes.
Since we are making fun of people, here is one of me:
I actually grabbed the tree on the left and kept from dropping to my instant doom.

That is such a good picture of you grabing the tree.
Here is another of me. I don't know why its fuzzy, its perefectly sharp on my computer.
The first time doing this, I went down on my back wheel and my bike bounced, then my feet came out/down like a super man, and I fell. I have no idea what casued me to bounce.

Laugh all ya like.
I still dont think crash pics are funny.
What if you laughed at a pic only to find out the guy had died minutes after the crash. Would you still laugh at the picture?
What if it was a 9 yo learning to do his first drop and got paralyzed for the rest of his life?
I think its funny if you know the guy was alright after the crash but if you dont know the outcome its just morbid to laugh at a crash.
Laugh all ya like. Someday you might grow up and think before you actually make such crazy comments.

well its kinda okay if you post your own crash pics. and jeremy that line is ridiculous. me and my crew went up there and holly **** your a brave man just for trying that thing. kanter it will be okay dude i dont think anybody would post anything if they knew the guy would be getting seriously injured cause this would be a respect thread not a laughing thread.
crashes can still be funny even if the outcomes are not. And havent you heard something called dark humour? It's what people do to stop overthinking and making themselves miserable over every bad thing thats happened in the world.Kanter said:
and of course it helps to be a Darwinist.....
^ nice signature! I remember that.
the only times i ever get scared of watching a crash is when i am there in person and the guy does something big and you can see the crash coming.
THAT JAPANESE DUDE..........CANT RIDE. that is funny(just for you kanter )

Wingman, New Years Eve was 5 days ago and the football game was yesterday.
Bwhahahahahahhahahaha,sirknight6 said:How's this for Urban?
I wonder if the umbrella slowed down his fall.
These are great, crashing is a part of mountain biking.
The definition of comedy is someone else falling down a flight of stairs,
the definition of tragedy is me having a hangnail.
Ha, the sketchiest thing about line is the exit.frznnomad said:
There is not one. If you ever hit it, Drop straight off the center.
One time, I rolled it on the far left and bounced my way down it.
I had poop in my socks at the bottom.

Judging by the amount of threads I think are funny, and they are deleted, or criticized, posting threads doesn't make them funny. I wish it did.sirknight6 said:Gee if it wasn't funny, why was it posted? just curious...
well I guess not, am I aloud to say that?
p.s. I'm sorry for being drunk last night, it will never happen again. never come off as a drunk monkey. Kanter I'm sorry.

Yeah, the drop is nothing. Like Jeremy said its the fact that you just end up in a tangled mess of mountain laurel. I some how hope its in the DH national course this coming year.Jeremy R said:Ha, the sketchiest thing about line is the exit.

yeh that would be crazy i might acctually work up the balls to hit it when we head up there to session it. that would deffinatly be a great edition to the course to with the big rock face to ride as well. ohh yeh jeremy butch good job on that run by the way deffinatly worth the extra time to get up there and hit it.
There is nothing as funny as the folly of others. I laughed out loud at most of those flicks!
Laughing is a natural human response to even truly nasty situations...my Tibetan coworker had to unlearn his cultural tradition of laughing at every mishhap no matter how ghastly when an American told him he was being callous, etc. That how they (and we) deal sometimes.
I think it's prefectly lovely to laugh at crash shots...I've provided many to people myself...I *have noticed that most people dont laugh when it's happening at a race, etc if it looks like it had the potential for real harm.
Pictures are fair game, imo.
